Tweetdeck beta for android apk is out! :) - Vibrant General

The version is the final beta but it's an old build *Tweetdeck says* but you can get it at droiddog dot com. Just look for the post.
I think it's very fast! Even on Edge it's speedy! However if they don't somehow integrate the columns like iphone and the desktop, it will be disappointing. You know how you can view each column like tweets, mentions dms, facebook and scroll thriugh them and click one to enlarge? i loved that look but it doesn't have it on this release. I am exited about it though and also, you can actually view people's wall, comment and like their status within the app
yaaaay!!

wow, it's been less than a week and already 2 quick updates out. Beta 3 is out. if you follow tweetdeck on twitter, they provide a link that you press and it downloads right to your phone after you press save, then press the downloaded software and it installs over the current one you have

works pretty damn good! wish it had myspace integrated and widget then i'd no longer use the native samsung feeds & updates

yeah i feel ya. I am so ready for the distant column view.. just like iPhone or the desktop where the notifications come on the inside when in the app or appear outside as normal when you're not using it. u get me?

Did they change it so you can set how often it updates? I tried the first beta and it was constantly updating. Needless to say it put a strain on my battery.

Hmm.. It doesn't look anywhere close to their iphone version, but again .. it's beta. I'd wait until they release the final version.

I'm liking this app!..seems much easier to use than the Facebook app and seems quicker too, good so far.

Facebook, no 'Like' in News/Update pages, and cant see comments!!

Where is the 'Like' button and why on earth can you only see the original status posted by a friend and not any comments made about that status???
I Commented on a friends status only to find out (logged on from my PC) that 4 other people had already commented and so my comment made no sense! lol

Yeah I must say coming from the iPhone the facebook app on win mob is terrible! Ok I know its pretty sad saying that but tbh before having my iPhone I didn't use facebook much but because the facebook app on the iPhone was such a pleasure to use I really got in to it... I'm having to use facebook on opera now.
Dump the FB app, it's utterly useless.
Use http://touch.facebook.com instead. Better, faster, and works awesome in Opera.
Thats what I have been using shame there isnt a facebook app that works though..

I'm not hugely into FB but it would of been nice to at least be able to use it as it's a preinstalled app!!
Considering the guy who developed the iphone version of facebook app fell out with apple due to its ridiculous app store approval process, they should get him to make a WM version!

Been using the touch.facebook.com for a few days now and you guys are right so much better then the app for WM... but just wondering if anyone else is having an issue with it being slow to update news feeds? Seems to be way behind at times!
ive had that problemw ith the touch site, but the main diffeerence for me between the iPhone app, is the lack of facebook chat, thats a nice feature!
Thanks for the heads-up regarding touch.facebook - didn't know about that! The winmo facebook ap is not very fully featured at all, which is a shame, because it wouldn't be a difficult application to write. That said, browsing being as good as it is on the HD2, i usually just visit the full facebook site. With pinch zooming i find it a breeze to navigate. Touch is probably a more sensible option though i guess. Just replaced my facebook ap quicklink with the facebook touch bookmark

Yeah, at the bottom is a link to "Mobile Site" which is m.facebook.com I think - that has the news feed issue fixed, but isn't as finger-friendly (it's not bad tho).
Neither of them allow you to view or tag photos very well IMO, a decent FB WinMo app would be very welcome.

Facebook app

apart from the official facebook app are there any alternatives to it because its a bit of a hit and miss for me.
Nope not really mate..
There is touch.facebook.com though in your browser
Yeah, the 'official' ones always seem to be a bit picky - apart from the Apple one it seems... I've had comments fail to post using the WM Marketplace version of the MS FB app every time when I use the physical QWERTY keyboard, but hardly ever when usin gthe on-screen one, for example. It never failed to post a status update though, on either kb
if you don't like the Touch site, there's always the half-way version at m.facebook.com.
i'm using babbler atm its amazing and notifies you on anything you want instead of just the handfew offered by the official app. gotta say the one for blackberry was actually on par with iphone i gotta say.
Yeah, I used Babbler for quite a while on my G1 - not got around to installing it on the Desire yet. Best thing was that it notified you whenever someone "liked" your status or photo, which no other app does AFAIK
What about bloo? Ive installed that atm cus Babbler seemed slow..
I only had lite though, dunno if pro is faster?
Bloo has always been good IMO
Whats the notifications like? No ones sent me anything yet so i dunno! lol
bloo keeps not letting me read peoples post saying i'm not their friends etc?

Pictures of your home screens (singapore people)

Like the title says show us your home screens. Come on give it up! A brief description of your live wallpaper and or widgets and if there stock or purchased from the app store. Thanks
Sent from my android device using Tapatalk
In the forum over at hardwarezone.com.sg they have shown a couple of screens but also talk of problems in how to carry out a screen grab.
I thought Touchwiz could do this using the hardware buttons.
I have a note (got it from somewhere) that says:-
"While using the device, you can capture an image of a screen. While pressing and holding Back, press the Home key. The image will be saved in Gallery."
Thoughts please.
what i would like to know also is the screenshots i seen of the galaxy s and other youtube videos saying it has touchwiz 3.0
but looking at this samsung video the touchwiz 3.0 is different. or maybe it has to do with the wave ...
Id much prefer this interface ...

That's running the Bada OS which is found on the Wave
it's faster than Android and I would have bought the Wave if the 3g bands worked in the Americas but it doesn't offer support for 1900mhz yet, and the number of applications do not match that of Android (I need applications that are not found on Bada yet, can't assume they will also), aaaand since we can't put shortcuts to applications on the homepage :'( like on Android.
Touchwiz is the UI on it and on Android too, it is a bit different for the Wave since it's running Samsung's new OS, Bada OS. I prefer the TouchWiz 3 on the Android since we can use hardware buttons to go back or to open the menu instead of them being on the screen which take up space.
But they are very very similar since it's the nearly the same UI.
Just like this...

Life Contacts Beta

Came out in the market today, but doesn't install on my 2.2 CM 6.1.3...
Says it supports 2.1 and up, and from the screenshots looks like the phone is an X10..
Looks like it could be pretty useful
Edit: Mods, I didn't realize there was an applications section. Could you please move this there? Sorry for the inconvenience
Edit2: Market link: https://market.android.com/details?i...icsson.zwooshi
App link: http://www.nidri.eu/se_apk/com.sonyericsson.zwooshi.apk (thanks to totalundone)
I took a look in the market and Google search but couldn't find anything called life contacts lol
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I found it on the market website. Said it wasn't available for my carrier.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sonyericsson.zwooshi
I think we'll need to wait till someone shares the apk.
It's neat, pretty bare, no options though. I like its simplicity.
However, it didn't pull all my contact photos (facebook ones, but I'm using timeline for facebook contact photos)
It looks really nice though, I'm definitely keeping it.
Here
It's an SE developed App by the looks of it, but having upgraded to CM6.1.3 [V5], Android Market doesn't recognise my X10 - it just has the make and model fields blank. I guess SE may have restricted the App to SE phones only?
Just a hunch...

Samsung fix the damn dialer

This **** isnt OK Samsung!
When you use the dialer and hit contacts and then Keypad and then Contacts the screen goes black and redraws and lags like crap.
People use the dialer every time they use the phone and its just BAD.
How on earth do you think you will ever compete with iOS when you have glaring problems with the most basic functions.
The functionality is OK but the implementation is terrible.
If you cant make Touchwiz work then maybe you should just forget it and start over.
Oh and BTW Nature themes suck.
Rant over
Ps. Omega Rom rox
Works fine for me. Yes it does show an animation or transition or whatever you want to call it, but I see no lag.

Was about to click the link.. Then saw the post above you.. Saved from embarrassment
By the way I am typing from my phone.. So expect typos!!
That UI 'lag' or 'black screen' is because when you hit contacts your actually launching a new app (although it doesn't look like you have).
Samsung have just created the dialer app with a direct link to the contact app and vice versa but it is still in two separate apk's
I hate the implementation of the smart dial functionality. HTC Sense has vastly superior implementation. The Samsung version looks like they threw something together in a hurry and didn't finish it off. For a start the dialler only shows one result and there's a considerable delay to pop up the full list. Next there's the fact that there's no space key so I can't type say JspaceS to show John Smith and James Sullivan. Lastly there's the bug whereby if you have a title in the person's name, smart dial only finds the contact if you type the first letters of the title and not the name. If I have a Fr Joe Burns I have to type Fr for the name to show, J and B won't work. I wish Samsung could fix this.

I just installed CM10 Nightly on my wife's SII and it's faster to do both than my SIII. I can see the OP's point, really. Just sayin' that there is some room for optimisation there. No question about it.
Samsung really needs to work on its integration. They have good ideas dont get me wrong.. such as swipe to call on the names. But the way to make it all fit together really sucks
